Import Tips
• Verify UL or ETL safety certification for heating elements to meet U.S. electrical import standards and avoid CBP holds
• Include detailed wiring diagrams and material specs in documentation to confirm classification as electric blankets, not heated throws
• Label fiber content accurately (e.g
• polyester fill) as per Textile Fiber Products Identification Act to prevent misclassification
